ION, I have been saying "shall" a lot lately, in a (to me) completely organic and normal feeling way. Is this because I have married a Brit?
I work for Brits, and I've been completely converted to ending phone conversations with "Cheers!"
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I was told to buy the CI. Of course, I don't know what issue it was in, and have no money for it. I had to cancel my frigging newspaper, so I'm not really in the position to buy some foodie magazine for a cupcake recipe.
Cindy, I was just being silly. I heartily apologize for missing the context, as I thought you were being silly as well.

I shall embroider it on a sampler for you.
Yay! It's my mantra of the day.
Hey, Kat!! Actually, tomorrow is our anniversary. And just to continue the doppel-ness of it all, we'll be apart because I'll be on a work trip down to Atlanta. How's tricks with you?

I was being silly too, before. Now I am being silly and the side of bitter that only being CUPCAKELESS can bring. I'm sorry that didn't carry over so well. It's probably because of my extremely low blood sugar on account of my CUPCAKELESS state.

Pretty good. I my hair is pinked back up. I'm trying to think of why someone should fund me to study Chaucer and I'm watching Starting Over which has a woman who was a gymnast (elite level) from childhood on. Which I can relate to in an uncomfortable way.

Hell, think how I feel, I have the recipe but no means to make it reality. All I can do is stare at the pictures. But not lick the magazine. Oh, no. Because that would be gross and weird and extremely silly.
I should go back to bed before Tom busts me for being on the board.
(the computer room is cold and not rest-inducing for the ill)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have scalloped potatoes.
But they don't look like scallops.
More importantly, they don't taste like them.

I am going somewhere on the company dime tomorrow. Atlanta.
Yes, it is supposed to be warm and sunny here tomorrow. The daffodils and some trees and shrubs are in bloom. Fortunately, you will have missed yesterday's killer hail.
Let me know if you need any restaurant or other information.

kat, ATLANTA?! That's not a fun place to be alone on your anniversary. I'm sorry.
